Abstract

The routing protocols play a vital role in saving energy, especially by minimizing the time a packet takes to travel from source to destination. The aim of energy-aware routing protocols is to select a route that engages routers in such a way that the overall energy consumption is minimized. In this paper, a relationship between resource utilization and energy consumption is stated, further, a resource-aware dynamic routing algorithm for SDN is proposed. The contribution of this paper is a queuing theory-based approach that measures the average waiting time of nodes and links based on their utilization and finds a path that costs the least time. The paper also proposes a framework for implementing routing algorithm over an SDN. Performance of the algorithm is verified using a GNS3 based implementation with an Opendaylight controller.
